Create a hyperlink.
A hyperlink can be as simple as one word or several.
I see them posted here from time to time.
Pasting a web-address in the link creator (looks like a chain link) that is in the toolbar at the top this message only results in the full web-address getting posted.
As most of you reading this most likely know that the toolbar does not appear in a message after it is posted.
If you use gmail it has a quick simple way to create a hyperlink in a new message.
This is an image of the link creator that is available in all HEF new un-posted messages.

I may be doing something wrong but I can't seem to create a hyperlink with it. I may as well just paste the web address in any message I create.
I think hyper-links make messages easier to read and look uncluttered.
Below is a gmail hyper-link creator and it works quite well.

If I'm following what you're saying correctly I believe I have that function disabled. There have been too many times in the past where a photo hosted by hyperlink has been removed and then we have a thread with a bunch of red X's. If pictures are to accompany a thread they must be loaded to our server so they may be enjoyed indefinitely.

Aha!
Thanks Steve.
That explains it.
I know it is a trivial thing. Computer challenges are like waving a bone in front of a dog for me.
I keep after them until I figure it out.
Kinda like Vetech and his ongoing dilemma with all the work left to him by the dummies he has to work around.
20 minutes after I posted this --- I found a hyperlink to the CNH parts book. It was posted by alrman. :)
He has it figured out ! Just like anything made by Case.
